Song Review: 'Goose' & 'Skank'. Getting down to the funk - No Hot Ashes blare out sassy, dim and fizzy rock groove with aplomb






1,2,3,4! .. Furious. Dashing. Progressive. Picking up pace. Dynamically and forcefully. Swirling with infectious fuss. With boisterous roar. With severe, fiercely stinging stridency.  1 - ... 2 - ... 3 - ... 4 - ...  gentle and soft sonic serenades unfurl in a low-key and modest, in a balanced and smooth fashion, dwell on calm and mild melodic moments of alluring depth and inciting, tensely flaring expectancy for a fulminant finish, a final frantic, vivacious clash or an elusive, 'open', ergo suspensefully resonant, haunting even, closure



Rhythm - provided by powerful, vibrant percussions or by sonorous, melodious riffage - shapes a song, dictates verve and energy, mandates mellowplacid serenity, runs, rushes sometimes in a commanding and rousing style, then comes in fluently, delicately and at ease, ommiting insistently ringing instrumental, vocal peaks and waves outright or intentionally, willfully for a surprising, a thrilling crescendo, for a reverberative, an incisive and yet hollow tonal tide, installing these climaxes, these frisky and tense sequences in turn to make an imposing, a gripping compositional mark

Rhythm - it's the means, the move of a musician, the noisily urging, steamily smouldering engine of his musicianship ... and No Hot Ashes govern, deploy it all so well ...

Buoyant and atmospheric riffage of blurryethereal sonic accompaniment draws the curtain and reveals a funky and upbeat, a moody yet rhythmically glowing composition. A groovydim bass line commands the instrumental layout of 'Goosewith blantant confidence, whilst friskyfiery guitar gimmicks and vivacetrenchant percussions contribute to establish a more livelydashing and tingly melodic note, whilst sassy and passionate vocals add a drasticdemanding edge to the song's steadily shakenuneasy and bouncy beatFuzzy and staggeringenergetically pulsating guitar waves and vibrant, tensely cadenced drumming make your feet eventually dance to said beatmake you shake your body jauntily without fail.  



Its gravely gripping and hollow bass reverberation defines the dynamic and steadily perky momentum of 'Skank', aims at creating an imbuing, bracing composition of electrifying tonal quality and is boosted in this endeavour by the firm echo of brisk drum strokes as well as by a bold guitar pulse that sets the composition's pushy, powerful rhythm. 'Skank's edgy, rousing attitude manifests best in its vivaciousardent vocal performance marching on with virulent might and sweeping swagger, causing an acutely tingling, vivid buzz



Now, what's to expect live from these fine and frantic dance anthem creating lads


Something spirited and furious like this, definitely ...
